Spark-Free Cabinets with Explosion-Proof Interior

Published over 14 years ago. See the latest and most current information on Environmental laboratory.

The latest guidelines for laboratories, BGR 120, state that interiors, in which dangerous, explosive atmospheres can develop, must be explosion-proof. These explosive atmospheres can, for example, be generated by flammable liquids which have been discarded.

Lovibond® spark-free cabinets from Tintometer (Germany) meet these requirements in full. Their interiors contain no sources of sparks and are therefore explosion-proof.

The cabinet temperature can be set continuously from +2 °C to +10 °C and is constantly controlled by a room thermostat. Defrosting is automatic and is electronically regulated. The structure is made up of steel panel housing with an impact-proof, bump-resistant powder paint coating. The interior is made of high-strength, durable plastic.

Lovibond® laboratory refrigerated cabinets are supplied in different sizes, offering capacities of 180, 260, 360 and 500 litres.
